Trading is very simple, you have capital and time (Buffett) or you have leverage and perfection (HFT). Everyone else including all retail, trade in the margins for 1-2% per month between the institutional and hedge fund moves fighting with the other traders, it's hard work where the input is...

Over 1,000 words to explain "cognitive dissonance" in the form of a Milgram, that's a keeper.

The funny part is that I know the exact company you need, but you've been such as arse in the past you can find it yourself. Don't you just love karma.

That's not how everyone has been explained ignore works, but there you go. On a 9% chance of success, it's smarter they put their $150 on a Roulette Corner bet. Risk management and probability distribution obviously isn't your forte. Anyway, back to the topic. The problem is with their, and...

And then Speedo quotes one year ago the complete opposite, you mean intelligent conversion by having the memory of a knat, that's not intelligent, that's IYI. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/the-biggest-news-ever-to-hit-elitetrader.297330/#post-4234677 The purpose of trading is...

Those are the quoted stats, it's smart to stick with them as the basis, which provides a 91% failure rate (50% of 18%), that's better than the 99% retail failure rate but far from transparent.

Buried in a faq, a normal transparent company puts a footnote on their site. If you spent a few minutes actually exploring people who have used it, the fees come as a surprise to them. Don't you just love people using hindsight bias, a beginners mistake with 600 posts now there's an oxymoron...

So I came across TopStepTrader when researching other prop firms and looked up their stats. * 18% move from combine to funded * 50% fail in funded * 2015 around 320 funded traders * $150 to $375 per month for combine So that's around 1,800 people per year paying monthly, let's say they do it...

Many thanks for the information, I do not wish to dilute @helgen_1 thread so will keep it brief. It is unfortunate your staff do not know or communicate these facts, as it would have been a materially different discussion. Our primary request via two way contact was for second based charts...

Thanks for the post. So the meaning is, if the orders are passthrough (broker) they are not subject to the rules, however any primary developer/architect and any service running/generating the orders would 'in most cases' be covered as they provide 'value-add'. This is the key part "firms...

Also used X_Trader and then looked at TT, felt it went backwards, plus cloud really is not ideal if you have valuable IP. Did ask for some paid updates, they ignored the request, so that platform was out as a foundation for the traders. Appears many brokers and platforms definition of...

With NT/TWS/MT retail tools, really, you believe with more people you can overcome the limitations of the platforms and brokers from the bottom up. Plus the candidate has to be perfect using imperfect tools and in a group where human nature reverts to the lowest common denominator. That should...

The numpty crowd are at it again, very good.

They don't care, this has been ramping up the past months. The firms are finding it hard to generate income these days, it's just the financial markets doing what they do. In retail you're at the bottom of the slush pile, OptionHouse have a zero minimum starting deposit, when you start...

Assuming it's Hold Brothers, then why would you choose them given the SEC action. It depends on what you want from the prop firm, mentoring, capital, development, leverage, hft, research, the process would take weeks to months. Looking at the two mentioned, Hold and Bright, makes our partner...

Try RJObrien or Advantage Futures and get a quote, a quick Google search comes up with some but use the images, not text. What you use it for is up to you, but that's personal opinion because am not trying to sell you anything.

Gustave Navlet who sculpted the bas-reliefs by candlelight on the cellar walls of Pommery apparently went blind, there's a very good reason why long term use of vr and charts is stupid. But people do all sorts of idiotic things to try and gain an edge.

So I'm going to ask a simple question here first before going any further, you have over 300 posts providing advice to people about trading but cannot calculate a backtest P&L, what gives. Calculating per trade is what most normal people do and consolidate upwards.

Now did always enjoy Belga Queen and the burgers at Patrick Foley's with a Kilkenny when I was there, have to head over that side in the near future so if you get something moving. Otherwise try Internations, usually a good source for that type of thing.
